Description: The Plot to Kill Hitler. Rare uncorrected Proof First Edition by Patricia McCormick. Paperback Book. Dietrich Bonhoeffer: Pastor, spy, unlikely hero. "The Plot to Kill Hitler" by Patricia McCormick is a historical novel that tells the gripping true story of the failed assassination attempt on Adolf Hitler known as Operation Valkyrie. Here's a brief overview of the book's plot:Set in Nazi Germany during World War II, the story follows a group of German officers and resistance fighters who conspire to assassinate Hitler and overthrow the Nazi regime. At the center of the plot is Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg, a high-ranking officer in the German Army who becomes disillusioned with Hitler's leadership and ideology.As the war progresses and the atrocities committed by the Nazis escalate, Stauffenberg becomes increasingly determined to take action against Hitler. Alongside fellow conspirators such as General Friedrich Olbricht and General Ludwig Beck, Stauffenberg hatches a plan to assassinate Hitler during a meeting at the Wolf's Lair, Hitler's heavily fortified headquarters in East Prussia.The novel explores the challenges and risks faced by the conspirators as they navigate the complex web of Nazi surveillance and betrayal. As the date of the assassination attempt approaches, tensions rise and the stakes become higher than ever.However, despite meticulous planning and careful execution, the plot ultimately fails. The bomb planted by Stauffenberg detonates but fails to kill Hitler. In the aftermath of the failed assassination attempt, Stauffenberg and his co-conspirators are swiftly captured and executed by the Nazi regime. Rain damage to pages, does not lay flat.
